Abstract

In this work CO₂ laser has been utilized to produce textured surface in zinc foil to use in electrochemical cells as a cathode, the modified surface was obtained by making two parallel lines in 1mm, using CO₂ laser with (?=10600nm) and power of 90 watts and 10mm/s speed. The experimental evidence of the effect of surface texturing on the performance of the electrochemical cell was demonstrated and investigated. The results show considerable increase in cell voltage with the textured cathode comported to the planar one, also the performance of cell with the textured cathode is more stable.
